The Collegiate Church of the Santissima Trinità, Vitulano's mother church, was built in the late 16th century as a symbol of unity between the village's two communities.

The Collegiate Church of the Santissima Trinità was built in the late 16th century halfway between the churches of Santa Maria Maggiore and Santa Croce, as a sign of unity between the two communities that made up Vitulano. Today it is the mother church and holds the relic and statue of the hermit St Menna.We like the Baroque interior, with a canvas of Saints Cosmas and Damian and two 18th-century gilded statues of the Immaculate Conception and the Madonna del Rosario. We recommend not missing the frescoed Cappella dei Nobili (Nobles' Chapel), with its altar in Vitulano marble and an old wooden choir, and looking up at the bell tower of the Vanvitelli school.
